Airport Customs Destroy £6,000 ‘Trezeguet’ World Cup Final Shirt
By Chris Wright
Thanks to the hyper-sensitive times in which we live, the shirt worn by striker David Trezeguet during France's 1998 World Cup win over Brazil has been destroyed by airport officials.
Les Bleus fan Olivier Demolis bought the shirt off eBay for over £6,000 (€7,350 to be precise), only for customs workers to burn the shirt to cinders on it's arrival in France after mistaking it for a counterfeit knock-off, due to a stretch of dodgy-looking stitching.
